For anyone who is coming to this event, thank you very much. It's
important that education be made available to those less fortunate
souls who didn't finish middleschool, or who for some other reason
find science to be offensive. I don't feel like we're going out there
to provoke, but to educate.

Far more people have had positive reactions to this Science Fair than
have been negative, and I think we will receive a warm reaction from
the Juggalo community for providing this community service. If you
feel this project is so divisive in its current incarnation, please
feel free to come to the planning meeting tomorrow evening at 7pm and
help shape it into a better event for everyone.

There will be no dress code enforcement, if you want to dress like a
Juggalo you can feel free. If you want to dress like Bill Nye, you can
feel free. If you want to go mostly naked with a large gourde covering
your genitalia while covered in body paint while making loud grunts,
you should probably clear that with the SFPD first, but if they say
it's ok, you can feel free.

The message about Saturday isn't "ha ha, juggalos are dumb," it's that
science is real, it explains everything they took issue with in the
song, and scientists (and through them, education) is nothing to fear.
